To me, the funniest part of this was not the guy's kilt (hey, cross your legs when you wear a short dress, guys), but rather the comment about the Queen looking uncomfortable. I mean, has the Queen ever looked anything but uncomfortable and awkward in any photograph?

This was just discussed on The View. Meredith Viera reminded everyone that when they had a kilt-wearing Scotsman on the show and he was asked what he wears under there, his resonse was "nothing but my wife's lipstick."

Where's the meat and two veg? The wedding tackle? ,Big Ben?, the crown jewels?, the Eiffel Tower?, the family jewels?, the frank 'n beans?, the one eyed trouser snake?, the package?, the twig and berries? For all we know, he's wearing bikini briefs

Personally, I think that Colonel "cut" a "fluff" and that was the reason for the guilty looking smile on his face and the disgusting and uncomfortable look on the face of the Queen. (If we only had "Smell-a-vision!"

A young Scottish man fell asleep under a tree in the meadow one day. Two young lasses passed by and seeing the sleeping young man under the tree decided to see just exactly what they wore under their kilts. One of the girls lifted his kilt and then they both had a peek. One of the girls had a blue ribbon in her hair. So since the man continued to be in such a deep sleep, they decided to tie the blue ribbon around his "pitard." Then they slipped off quietly, giggling to themselves as they left. Eventually, the young Scot awoke. He looked down at his skirt, and feeling the breeze, discovered the blue ribbon tied around his "pitard." He said, "I don't know where it is that you've bean, my lad! But I'm sure glad that you've won First prize!"

Lab Spec, I was having way too many computer deaths here on my laptop. The thing would just die... no shutdown, no warning, no nothing.... I found out that the CPU was overheating from a crappy fan. Seems to be a very well-documented problem with Dell Inspiron computers.

Hope you're able to figure out what's wrong with yours without too much frustration!

Oh, and good morning Moatinoes! I trust everyone's weekend was Steagleriffic! Ours was.

I rented a wet saw and cut tile all weekend. Not exactly how I like to watch the games, but I could here it, and caught pieces of it as I refreshed my beverage (Of course I wasn't drinking and sawing, that would just be wrong ;O )

One of these days I am going to post the remodel pics I swear............until then

Oops! I just got kind of, well, not really flamed, but perhaps singed a bit, by his Daveness over on the MB for suggesting links to Ananova might be less than sporting. They exaggerate, and lie, and that's our job...

1) I believe Neo suggested the moat about the Kangaroo pouches;
2) Eleanor gave it the name;
2) Jeff did the research and found it; and
3) Leetie gave us the push to move.

Thanks all for the team work!!!

Re Dell Inspiron's: during my problems with my laptop, I found out that particular model had a lot of problems and Dell was reluctant to own up to it. However, they no longer make that model of Inspiron. It was a 2600 or something like that.

I'm actually thinking about going to a store and *gasp* buying a computer this time! It will be the first time I've done that since... let's see... carry the three, divide by my age in dog years... well... the last computer I bought was an Amiga 3000, and you'll have to do the research to see when it was made. Since then, I've built all my own computers and done all the upgrades myself.

But, Jamester, you mean Ananova stories aren't 100% gospel? I'm shocked. They're (not their) one of the main sources of my items I send Dave, along with NEWS.com.au (for the best Aussie news). And my "make ghost noises" came from there.

(*jealous*)

This story, for instance came from the Aussie site, even though it happened in Colorado.

Well, Jeff, it seems clear I'm in the minority here, maybe even a minority of one...It just seems a bit like shooting fish in a barrel sometimes...
But still, all congratulations nonetheless on your posting. I promise I'm not envious, I appreciate all of the bloglets offerings. I didn't mean to come off like some sort of curmudgeon...Guess the ride on the geezer bus gets a bit too bumpy for me sometimes...

But frankly, we don't know what we would do if we caught them red handed."

Legal experts say there is no law against using faeces as a flag stand and the federal constitution is vague on the issue.

Jeff, funniest lines in article, Jeff - we have "legal experts" for everything - I wonder if they researched the Constitution before they made that proclamation!

Press release: Dozens of Federal attorneys at taxpayer expense spent 7 working days, 6 hours a day times number of hours spent eating lunch and laughing at taxpayers researching to see if dog poo is enumerated in the Constitution/

Lab - on the LAST thread the margins are now fixed....
They were fixed, but were rebroken for a large number of us who do not use Internet Explorer to do our web browsing. I just checked, and nearly threw up, thanks to the italics. Can I sue the blog?

Were there pictures of Renee? I looked for them so I could say, in my mind, "Yeah, Leetie was right! What's her (Renee's) problem?"
I couldn't find any! Is this some sinister plot to make me waste time?

And yes, Marvin, the dress in the background is another level of wrong; but I was talking about the dress in the foreground that looks like goes from her bodice, between her legs and gets tucked into the back.

Ok, so I'm over here in "Czech-land", but they have 2 audio channels and one would think they'd pass the original through at least ONE of them...... and to make it more bazzzzzzar, there's a woman translating for the men.

We now combine in this report the stupid remark of the day with the stupid woman of the day -
Set-up:
Eleanor is driving down lane in Von's parking lot (going in the right direction!) at approx 1-2mph and "stupid woman" backs out of her space and hits Eleanor's car on passenger side, jumps out of her car and comes over to Eleanor where the following conversation ensues:

What are the first class accomodations like in this ScrotMOAT? I don't care for the space that I've been assigned. I would like a room that's a little less humid, please.

For anyone interested in the weather in Winterpeg, Saturday the windchill was -47 C. That's -53 F for most of you. Apparently you can 'perish' after 10 minutes outside at that temp. Right now, it's a balmy -40 (same in either scale). Jamie and I walk to the daycare in the mornings and it's just a constant litany of complaints from her. I keep reminding her how tough we are.

They're heading home just about the time I show up! I hope someone missed me...

Got home to more snow than I have ever seen here and it is still falling hard. Our pipes froze while we were gone but the tenants downstairs kindly thawed them out before we got home.

I have reviewed most of what happened over the weekend. Rocky is pleased by Patriots win--ergo, so am I.

Any report yet on Rach's answer?

Sly and Jackie, I don't think the McCormacks qualify in the cute guy/not so cute gal competition. She looks a litle ditzy but reasonably cute. This mismatch is not nearly in the Billy Joel/Christie Whatsername category. Or Anne Bancroft/Mel Brooks for that matter. Just my opinion...

OK, we have the snow thing under control so I guess sandy is worse off than me. But on the walk this morning the metal frames on my glasses kept sticking to the skin under my eyes. It REALLY hurt. Also, I have lousy cold. I cannot believe how bad 'Buckley's' tastes. I don't recall ever using it before but I got it today because it's supposed to be strong. There was a moment or two when I wasn't sure I was going to keep it down.

Nice of you to defer to my snow, Peri, but I think bitter cold is worse, especially when you're out in it. -11 F is the worst we've had here, which is not that bad, although with the wind chill it was more like 20 below. But Winterpeg is definitely worse.

Yes, Jeff, I'm OK except for a headache. Actually I was more OK until you had to one-up me with your better story, but since I've previously declared this to be Jeff Meyerson Day because Dave posted one of your submisions, I'm going to let it slide.

I will just mention however, that I saw on the NYTimes banner that it was 26F in NY today - it's 78F right now here in su.so.ca.!

Good to have you back sandy - and to you and Peri, please forgive the 78F temp here - I just did that to rag Jeff and your posts weren't there at the time! But feel free to come and visit!

Peri - would you prefer a suite a little farther away from the hot tub? I think that would take care of the humidity problem - there's an empty one on the second floor - better grab it before Joshkr finds us!!

In Anchorage we were two cars behind an SUV that spun through two 360 degree turns and then finally stopped in the snow piled up on the side. Nobody hit them. Reminded me that even if I can drive in the snow doesn't mean the guy in front of me can.
